Greek Slow Cooker Chicken image

This dish is based off the Greek chicken my friend Kim taught me. I modified it to use the 6-quart slow cooker in the summer instead of the oven.

Time 4h20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (3 pound) whole chicken, skin removed
1 lemon, cut in half
6 cloves peeled garlic, or more to taste (divided)
6 red potatoes, sliced into 1-inch thick rounds
1 large onion, roughly chopped
¼ cup white wine
¼ cup olive oil
1 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules
¼ cup boiling water
2 teaspoons dried oregano
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Rinse the chicken, inside and out. Place one half of the lemon and 3 garlic cloves in cavity of chicken. Reserve other half of lemon.
  • Layer the sliced potatoes and the onions in the crock of a slow cooker. Sprinkle remaining 3 garlic cloves around the inside of the cooker; place chicken onto the vegetables. Pour in the wine and olive oil. Dissolve bouillon in the boiling water, and add to the cooker.
  • Squeeze the juice of remaining lemon half over chicken (strain out seeds); sprinkle with oregano. Season chicken with salt and black pepper.
  • Cover, and cook on Low setting for 8-10 hours, or on High setting 4-6 hours. A meat thermometer, inserted into the thickest part of a thigh, not touching a bone, should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made it with some leftover roasted chicken and it was delicious. The sauce is flavorful and creamy, and it really brought the chicken to life.
